3 THE HOLLYWOOD STARS King Of The Nighttime World, 7 Single Artist Hometown: Los Angeles, CA, USA All over the world RASPBERRIES, KISS, CHEAP TRICK, THE NERVES King Of The Nighttime World was the tune that should have been a blockbuster hit for THE HOLLYWOOD STARS in 1974 but the record was shelved by CBS and covered by KISS when pitched to them by co writer Kim Fowley two years later. THE HOLLYWOOD STARS would eventually put out their debut album in 1977 on another label and another set of tunes, but that s a story for another day. ARTIST: THE HOLLYWOOD STARS TITLE: King Of The Nighttime World LABEL: Blank Recording Company CAT#: BRC022-7 FORMAT: 7 SINGLE GENRE: Power pop / Glam BOX LOT: 150 SRLP: $11.98 UPC: EXPORT: No export to Australia King Of The Nighttime World would eventually be released in 2013 as part of the Shine Like A Radio LP that compiled the 1974 recordings that were to comprise the debut album, but Too Hot To Handle and Habits which were recorded in 1975 are completely unreleased and see the light of day for the first time on this limited edition 7 single. Two previously unheard tunes. A side is a legendary tune later made famous by KISS Limited edition of King Of The Nighttime World 02. Too Hot To Handle 03. Habits

4 LACK OF INTEREST Trapped Inside, LP Artist Hometown: Los Angeles USA / UK / Japan / Australia WEEKEND NACHOS, TO THE POINT, EXTORTION, INFEST ARTIST: LACK OF INTEREST TITLE: Trapped Inside LABEL: Deep Six Records CAT#: DSR250-1 FORMAT: LP GENRE: Hardcore / Punk / Power Violence BOX LOT: 25 SRLP: $17.98 UPC: LACK OF INTEREST have been doing this whole power-violence things around the time of when the term was first being thrown around. Whether or not if they jumped on this band wagon or if each member of LOI had been doing this way before the band got together isn t determined; but one thing for sure is their blunt, but hateful attack on all things that bother them (government, violence, tough guys, cops, anyone who has given the band a hard time, etc.). Clocking in at an estimated total of fifteen minutes, the 24 songs on TRAPPED INSIDE fly as a short burst of suckerpunches without leaving any room for one to take a breather. Now if only someone could teach their singer not to resemble the grunting of Tim Allen; at least there aren t any songs about power tools. Originally released by Slap-A-Ham in 1999, it has since been out of print...until now! Limited to 500 Colored Wax SIDE A 1. Behind Bars 2. Suicidal 3. What s Wrong 4. You Hate You 5. Homeless 6. Alone Once Again 7. Lost It 8. Looking Blindly 9. Force Fed 10. No Solution 11. My Life 12. Wasted Effort SIDE B 1. One Trust 2. Brainwashed 3. Impeached 4. Tough Guy 5. Empty Pockets 6. Social Inequality 7. Stop Hate Unite 8. What s Up 9. Escape Reality 10. I Know 11. Nothing 12. Disciplined

5 WEEKEND NACHOS Punish and Destroy, LP Artist Hometown: Chicago USA / UK / Japan / Australia LACK OF INTEREST, TO THE POINT, FETUS EATERS, INFEST. SICK/TIRED WEEKEND NACHOS are a fairly typical example of modern powerviolence, combining the well known formula of mixing fast passages with slow passages. They also got this vocal style you can often hear in this genre, which is a weird form of hardcore shout which sounds kind of like something is stuck in the throat of the vocalist. ARTIST: WEEKEND NACHOS TITLE: Punish and Destroy LABEL: Deep Six Records CAT#: DSR251-1 FORMAT: LP GENRE: Hardcore / Punk / Power Violence BOX LOT: 25 SRLP: $17.98 UPC: Punish and Destroy was the first full length these blokes released back in Although I have to add that the last 17 tracks on here actually are from the Torture EP that they released 2 years before they put out this album. Varied songs with tempo changes, heavy as hell sludge parts, raging fast powerviolence parts mid tempo hardcore rockers. Their later records basically expand on various elements already found here. They are also plain good songwriters. They know when to shift gears drastically in terms of both increasing the tempo as slowing all the way down. If you like to mosh this is perfect for some of that. The sound also is really damn good for a debut album. Everything sounds full and powerful. The bonus tracks from the EP also sound good but a bit rawer. SIDE 1 1 Acceptable Violence 2 Mocked 3 Dog Torture 4 Better Off Dead 5 Pathetic 6 Another World 7 Nothing s Changed 8 Apolitical 9 False Celebrity Kindness 10 Suburban Voice 11 Transformed 12 Hated 13 Breed The Plague SIDE 2 1 Trapped In A Scene 2 Instrumental 3 Klan Scouts 4 Your Guidance 5 Disrespect Your Elders 6 My Fellow Man 7 Sink To Your Level 8 Fashionable Poverty 9 Drinking Contest 10 Career Homicide 11 Pit Fatality 12 Expose 13 Sick In The Head 14 Punish And Destroy If you are new to powerviolence this is a good record to start with. This is very well produced and not as rampantly chaotic as some of the more extreme bands like say Sick/Tired or my personal favorite modern powerviolence band The Afternoon Gentlemen. They already show that they are skilled song and riff writers here and they would only get better at that game. Come on and join us in the pit. Original press is out of print...this repress puts it back on the market. Black Wax - which Japan is gushing over right now. Limited Edtion.

6 MINDWORK Eterea, CD Artist Hometown: Prague, Czech Republic Worldwide Metal Community ATHEIST, CYNIC, OBSCURA, NECROPHAGIST and OPETH ARTIST: MINDWORK TITLE: Eterea LABEL: Divebomb Records CAT#: DIVE043-2 FORMAT: CD GENRE: Progressive Death Metal BOX LOT: 30 SRLP: $9.98 UPC: Divebomb Records has teamed up with Prague-based tech death metallers, MINDWORK, for the worldwide release of their two albums Eterea and Into The Swirl. Their latest, Eterea, is a jazz-infused technical death metal tour de force which will appeal to fans of such classic artists like ATHEIST, CYNIC and OPETH. The new album finds the band introducing more dynamics and melody, vocally speaking, to their compositions while venturing into into sonic territories not found on Into The Swirl. MINDWORK truly are a thinking man s band pushing forward the boundaries of metal. Divebomb Records limited edition contains one bonus track a cover of Cynic s Uroboric Forms Contains 1 bonus track not available on band s pressing First time available in North America Leading extreme metal act coming out of Czech Republic 1.

Eterea Collapse BONUS TRACK 10. Uroboric Forms (Cynic Cover)

7 MINDWORK Into The Swirl (Deluxe Edition), CD Artist Hometown: Prague, Czech Republic Worldwide Metal Community CYNIC, OBSCURA, GORGUTS, PESTILENCE, CORONER, DEATH While Eterea clearly sees MINDWORK bravely taking their sound into uncharted territories, Into The Swirl was a weighty and exceptionally impressive debut foreshadowing what was to come for Prague-based tech death metal act - MINDWORK. Into The Swirl is a symbiosis of all of the best thought-provoking extreme metal bands of the early 90 s like PESTILENCE, CORONER, that delivers an equally punishing display of technical finesse and death metal ferocity. ARTIST: MINDWORK TITLE: Into The Swirl (Deluxe Edition) LABEL: Divebomb Records CAT#: DIVE044-2 FORMAT: CD GENRE: Progressive Death Metal BOX LOT: 30 SRLP: $9.98 UPC: Contains 4 bonus tracks from their 2008 demo First time available in North America Leading extreme metal act coming out of Czech Republic 1.

8 SYNAPTIK Justify & Reason, 2xCD Artist Hometown: Norwich, UK Worldwide Metal Community QUEENSRŸCHE, NEVERMORE, WATCHTOWER, PSYCHOTIC WALTZ, CONTROL DENIED and EVERGREY Since forming in 2012 from the ashes of such bands as FIFTH SEASON, INNER SANCTUM, and TWISTED AUTUMN DARKNESS, the primary concern of Norwich, England s SYNAPTIK has been musical intensity. Compartmentalizing SYNAPTIK s approach is as futile as attempting to cage a wild animal, but-nevertheless-traits of progressive metal seem ubiquitous, and a dark aura tends to cloak the band s output. ARTIST: SYNAPTIK TITLE: Justify & Reason LABEL: Divebomb Records CAT#: DIVE129-2 FORMAT: 2xCD GENRE: Progressive/Heavy Metal BOX LOT: 30 SRLP: $19.98 UPC: CD 1 1. The Incredible Machine 2. Human/Inhuman 3. Conscience 4. White Circles 5. Esc Ctrl CD 2 The Mechanisms Of Consequence Brain Spark Edition 1. Truths That Wake 2. A Man Dies 3. I Am The Ghost 4. Your Cold Dead Trace 5. Irresistible Shade 6. Vacancy Of Mind 7. As I Am, As I Was 8. Utopia In Our Eyes 9. All Lies 10. Allies 11. Your Cold Dead Trace (Tecchio Mix) When SYNAPTIK s debut, The Mechanisms of Consequence, was released in 2014, the press reacted with bewilderment. Near-perfect reviews became the norm, and one factor that seemed to be particularly appreciated was the group s knack for fusing technical sophistication with traditional metal sonorities such as blast beats; powerful riffs; and screaming, Priest-styled melodic vocals. In March of 2016, SYNAPTIK recorded their sophomore album-the epically diverse Justify & Reason-with Meyrick de la Fuente at Floodgate Studios in London. Justify & Reason finds SYNAPTIK placing a greater emphasis on their progressive tendencies, but also contains some of the group s heaviest material to date. Lyrically, Justify & Reason ventures into the dark, labyrinthine corridors of the human psyche to examine the relationship between inner emotions and society at large-universal themes that transcend cultural and national boundaries. The end result is mandatory listening for fans of QUEENSRŸCHE, NEVERMORE, WATCHTOWER and EVERGREY alike. Available from Divebomb Records-who released a retrospective discography from INNER SANCTUM (a band whose lineup featured SYNAPTIK s Kev Jackson and Ian and John Knight) in 2013-the CD version of Justify & Reason will also include a freshly mixed take on the group s debut album, The Mechanisms of Consequence, as a second disc. Comprised of such cuts as A Man Dies, As I Am, As I Was, and Your Cold Dead Trace (which features a guest appearance from Alan Tecchio of WATCHTOWER/HADES fame), the material now sounds more vibrant than ever before. With Justify & Reason, SYNAPTIK has raised the bar of progressive metal. Can you handle the intensity?

9 DEADBEAT / BOAK Split, 7 STREET DATE: 1/16/2017 Artist Hometown: Los Angeles, CA & Aberdeen, UK LA, NY, UK DESPISE YOU, INFEST, CROSSED OUT, MAN IS THE BASTARD DEADBEAT is seriously my new favorite band. Akin in my mind to MEHKAGO NT or FINALDRAFT but with lightning precision they have created a heavy hardcore, with grindcore riffs, and blistering angry vocals to create some evil hybrid sound. Now you would think the other band would have to bring a lot after that statement, well BOAK from the UK is probably the most apt band to follow a side like that. Perfectly matched bands, one angry release. The album s lacquers were masterfully cut by Nick Townsend. ARTIST: DEADBEAT / BOAK TITLE: Split LABEL: To Live A Lie Records CAT#: TLAL119-7 FORMAT: 7 GENRE: Powerviolence/hardcore BOX LOT: 100 SRLP: $5.98 UPC: DEADBEAT features member of DESPISE YOU Full color cover and labels Intense heavy hardcore sound BOAK hails from the UK 1. DEADBEAT - Enemy 2. DEADBEAT - Hellfire 3. DEADBEAT Vile Human 4. DEADBEAT Violent Mind 5. BOAK Skull 6. BOAK Bath Salts 7. BOAK Dress To Impress (ERADICATE)

10 TRIAC / SICK/TIRED Split, 12 STREET DATE: March 10, 2017 Artist Hometown: Baltimore MD & Chicago IL MD, IL, NY TORCH RUNNER, NAILS, IRON LUNG, DESPISE YOU, INFEST This is an unholy pairing of Baltimore s TRIAC and Chicago s SICK/TIRED and To Live A Lie s first split LP record release. The split is the best material to date of either band. TRIAC brings to the table their patented no-nonsense darkened grind hardcore that makes you feel a little uneasy. They are kind of like a NAILS that would let you be one of them. SICK/TIRED unleash their grindiest material that seems almost inspired by TRIAC. They still weave in some grindviolence and the opening track is almost a mincecore song. A perfect pairing for 5pm when you re off work, sitting in rush hour traffic, and done with the day and people. Play this at max volume and your day will melt away. ARTIST: TRIAC / SICK/TIRED TITLE: Split LABEL: To Live A Lie Records CAT#: TLAL120-1 FORMAT: 12 GENRE: Powerviolence/hardcore BOX LOT: 100 SRLP: $12.98 UPC: Killer recording by both bands TRIAC features record producer Kevin Bersten from of Developing Nations Studios, who recorded MAGRUDERGRIND Crusher SICK/TIRED is ex-mk ULTRA and this is their best material yet 1. TRIAC - Sink 2. TRIAC - Glutton 3. TRIAC Infect To Change 4. TRIAC Sinner Meat 5. SICK/TIRED Sacred Blues 6. SICK/TIRED Pray For Me 7. SICK/TIRED Smallest Smile 8. SICK/TIRED Biobs 9. SICK/TIRED Adios 10. SICK/TIRED Doomed From Birth

11 WVRM Heartache, LP Artist Hometown: Greenville, South Carolina STREET DATE: March 10, 2017 SC, NC, DC, NY MAGRUDERGRIND, ACXDC, PIG DESTROYER, TORCH RUNNER, NAILS, COFFINS ARTIST: WVRM TITLE: Heartache LABEL: To Live A Lie Records CAT#: TLAL121-1 FORMAT: LP GENRE: Grindcore BOX LOT: 100 SRLP: $12.98 UPC: WVRM has crawled out of Greenville South Carolina and is PISSED. The band meshes perfectly together a precise grindcore sound with a darkened hardcore edge to it. Six lightning quick blasts on the first side and two angry evil longer tracks on the reverse. Sardonic, brooding, and generally misanthropic, Heartache will make your heart actually hurt a bit after listening to it for better or for worse. I highly suggest this record for when your hatred for humanity has reached a high threshold and you need something to release that feeling. Amazing full color cover art by Matt Stikker Band recently won a recording with Kurt Ballou (CONVERGE, HIGH ON FIRE, TORCHE) One hyper fast grind slow, and slower songs on the other side 1. Death Erection 2. Night Collector 3. Fucked 4. Slow Strangle 5. Low Life 6. Only Suffering 7. Sleep Paralysis 8. As Below

12 NASHGUL Cárcava, LP Artist Hometown: A Coruña, Spain STREET DATE: 12/23/2016 Maryland, New York, Texas, California, Spain LOOKING FOR AN ANSWER, COFFINS, MAGRUDERGRIND, FUBAR, NAPALM DEATH, WORMROT ARTIST: NASHGUL TITLE: Cárcava LABEL: To Live A Lie Records CAT#: TLAL122-1 FORMAT: LP GENRE: Grindcore BOX LOT: 100 SRLP: $15.98 UPC: After being a band for fifteen years, NASHGUL has put together the most maniacal sophomore full length that will leave you with your jaw agape. Taking seven years to hone their sound since their initial full length offering, Cárcava is a touch over thirty minutes of grindcore perfection; blasty, angry, crushing riffs. If you have a love for honest, old school grindcore then this is going to be on your top ten for years to come. This LP will be a defining grindcore LP of TLAL along with the ARCHAGATHUS, MAGRUDERGRIND, and THE KILL records. Amazing gatefold cover Striking artwork from Luis Sendón Lyrics both in English and in Spanish One of the best grindcore bands from Spain The band has played many fests in the US including Maryland Deathfest 1. Progeria Inducida 2. Bethlem Royal 3. Social Network Martyrs 4. Matriz De Manipulación 5. Guerra Drone 6. Satan Freaks 7. Del Vientre A La Basura 8. Cyberpunk Scum 9. No sumidoiro 10. Taxidermia 11.
